THE MISSING LINK

Leon FontaineDevoted

The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you—and more [besides] will be given to you who hear. Mark 4:24 (AMPC) I’ll never forget a lesson I learned from a friend who was struggling with a major health crisis. He was claiming God’s promises for health and doing everything else he knew to do, but fear was beginning to attack his mind because nothing seemed to be working. As we were chatting during one particular visit, I suggested that it might be time for him to get back into God’s Word. He assured me that he had every healing scripture memorized and he spoke them over his life …

ORACIÓN DEL DÍA DE LA MADRE

Leon FontaineEntregate

Hijitos, ustedes son de Dios y han vencido a esos mentirosos, porque el que está en ustedes es más poderoso que el que está en el mundo. 1 Juan 4:4 (DHH)  Como hoy es el Día de la Madre, me gustaría que tomáramos una postura de fe con respecto a todas las mujeres que tenemos en nuestras vidas. En los últimos días hemos hablado sobre mujeres fuertes de la Biblia, y pido que ojalá sus historias lo hayan inspirado.   Al enemigo le gustaría que nos rindiéramos y nos conformáramos con lo que tenemos actualmente, pero 1 Juan 4:4 claramente dice que es mayor el que está en cada creyente que el que está en el mundo. ¡Podemos hacer todas las cosas a través de Cristo que …

SMALL CHANGE, BIG BLESSING

Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you were a listener when you’re anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! James 1:22 (MSG) When you read the Bible or Christian books or you listen to teaching, you sometimes get “aha” moments. Suddenly it becomes clear that you’ve been handling something the wrong way or neglecting to do something that would make a world of difference in your life. But when this happens, it’s not the revelation that changes your world. You need to begin to act differently if you want that revelation to do something in your life. When you learn something new but don’t act on it, James 1:23-24 compares this to seeing yourself …

COMPLEMENTO, NO COMPETENCIA

—Pues iré contigo —respondió Débora—. Sólo que la gloria de esta campaña que vas a emprender no será para ti, porque el Señor entregará a Sísara en manos de una mujer. Jueces 4:9 (DHH)  Si todo lo que hacemos es escuchar a Hollywood y las noticias, pareciera que este mundo solo funciona en extremos. Las personas son fanáticas religiosas o ateas, extrema izquierda o extrema derecha. Cuando se trata de mujeres, las opciones parecen ser o bien que las mujeres están mejor sin hombres, o que las mujeres necesitan desesperadamente un hombre en sus vidas.  Como es verdad con la mayoría de las cosas, el equilibrio saludable se encuentra en el medio. Hombres y mujeres son iguales. Somos seres únicos que no compiten entre unos y …

YOU CAN INCREASE EXPONENTIALLY

Leon FontaineDevoted

“While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22 (NKJV) Nothing in life has been designed to plateau. God created things to multiply and increase. He calls this principal the law of seedtime and harvest, which will always be in effect. Take an apple, for example. One apple can have about five to ten seeds in it. Each seed has the potential to grow a tree, and each tree has the potential to produce thousands of apples in its lifetime. If you were to count the number of seeds produced by each tree, they would number into the tens of thousands. And each seed is capable of producing another tree, which produces …
